Just saw Blade Runner again the other night. Some of those pics look like they were taken while scouting locations.

Looks like these structures were abandoned a long time ago. I cannot understand why the dentist chair, school desks and table were not sold? It looks like they abandoned it in a hurry.
- Shakeel Mahate
Shakeel: My guess would be that rather than being abandoned in a hurry, it was a very gradual transition. At first, they just close something thinking it'll only be temporary. A few months later, a window breaks or a pipe freezes. The weather gets in and nobody notices and things start to go downhill. Properties change hands, the contents depreciate, and pretty soon stuff's worth less than the cost to salvage it. Also, keep in mind many of these buildings were abandoned 20+ yrs before eBay, craigslist, etc.

I'm told there are REO property sales in Detroit to which the bank brings cash to the closing.

Ok, the glasses took it to a new level. Very good. I can't help thinking this will, in some quite literal way, become a life imitating art thing. *shakes head*

Under my administration, native Californians would need two years east coast winter driving experience before being allowed on I-80.

Or any other major freeway. Granted, I wouldn't be able to drive on the freeways under such a rule... but even having never driven in wintertime outside of California, other drivers on the roadways drive me INSANE.

"Fun chart from the folks at Wired graphing credibility versus time for some book-driven memes of recent note."

I'm reading Black Swan now. I think the Tipping Point goes up and the Black Swan is generally something going down.
